I've been reading all those BSE and Invisible Shields threads and when I was decided to order a body protection from BSE I remembered that for my old Nexus One I got a screen protector from StealthGuards as it was for free (I only had to pay the shipping) and the quality was similar (If not the same) as ZAGG's Invisible Shields. It took like 10 days to arrive to my home (Spain) and I had to pay less than $7, around 5,5€.
I just wanted to let the people around that they keep giving away the protector (full body) for free, they'll charge you a bit more if you want matte look but glossy one is OK with me.
Their website is http://stealthguards.com/
That was it, If it's not OK to talk about this in here please excuse me and delete my thread.
And excuse my english.

Ah well, as I said I used these on my Nexus One and the results were good
Not trying to flame but I had bad experiences with them.
I ordered 3 iPod Touch 4G screen protectors for my family to their home and ordered Nexus S protector to my dorm.
I received 2 Galaxy S screen protectors and my parents received 1 iPhone 4G protectors.
I e-mailed them and they simply ignored me for 3-4 days.
I decided to dispute.. I guess they didn't respond to PayPal so I got my money back within a week.
I've ordered from them twice and got my order no problem.
I have the NS skin on the back. Gives me the protection I want at 10% the cost of invisible shields and the like. I'm happy with my purchase
I use these on my Samsung Vibrant. I completely forgot about it, I'll head on over to there and get one for my NS4G. Thanks for reminding!
I had a stealth guard on my hero for a while. It just seemed to collect dirt in the corners and make the phone look bad. Finally got rid if it for a otterbox, which of course they won't make one for this phone.

Are you guys happy with the quality of the Zagg Screen Protectors?
I have one for my Vogue and love it. Got a full body one for my wife's BB pearl and the edges where there is a lot of curves didn't last well, but the screen and back are still in tact.
Not to bash on ZAGG but...

Comparing the ZAGG to the BSE.. I'll be waiting for BSE to release there's.
i love the zagg, screen only though.
have had a shield zone for all my electronics sine 05 excellent product
I already ordered my Zagg a few days ago, but after receiving my phone I am a little concerned about the lens protruding out like it does. Is there anything I can install over that to prevent it from getting scratched up?
i got it on my zune hd, its good, but it make the screen/color looks little weird.
I've had my white g1 that has the chipping problem for a year now and...needless to say my screen is the only thing that's still flawless.
I ordered a skin for my G1 from Best Skins Ever when I first bought my phone. Never recieved the skin; Never got my money back. I'm glad I only lost 10 bucks and not more. Now I have a Zagg Screen cover and a Zagg Skin for the body. Great quality product. My sister bought one for her iPod as well. I'm definitely ordering the full body kit from Zagg when I get my Incredible!!!
I have the zagg screen protector for the droid and totally love it. I think it actually improves the screen sensitivity and reduces fingerprints. I got it installed at best buy and they really went the extra mile to make it perfect (upon my request).
No bubbles or dust under it and its completely square on the screen. Ive been installing Zagg's myself for years on storm and mogul but just decided to save myself the headache and splurge and give the headache to someone else.
It took him 2 different shields but he got it and i gave him lots of props for it since it took like 30 minutes!!!
How about we get some high resolution pics up in this thread?
Sent from my ADR6300 I bought my incredible from bestbuy they gave me the zag for free and did free install
Picked up one from BestBuy as well. You pay a few bucks more locally, but they are good protectors. Had one on all my iPhones and never had issues with them.

It's hard to photograph without a good lighting setup. Just look on images.google.com you'll find several good examples
disappointing
I received the zagg screen 10 days after I originally ordered it and I can honestly say it wasn't worth the wait or the $15. It falls short of expectations which is not many given the nature of the product. I followed the directions and was suprised to find out that I had to apply a liquid solution to the shield and apply it to the electronic lcd display, but I did it anyways. They sent the screen along with the application solution and a black sponge in a plastic container that could not be resealed so I'm not able to save the liquid. I put the screen on, applied the solution with the sponge, and used the squeegee card to get out most of the bubbles as best as I could. Hours later the bubbles still remain with tiny black chunks from the sponge, and also what looks like spider cracks within the invisible shield. Apart from the screen being far from invisible, it just doesn't feel right under my fingertips. I go to swipe and there is too much friction between my fingertips and the screen creating lag due to the rubbery feel. I ordered a clear slim back shell case from HandHelditems.com that came with a free screen protector for my ipod touch for $3.84 and the screen protector is much better than the invisible shield. I don't understand how this company sells this junk to the masses, but they can take their "self-healing military grade" marketing bs and shove it because it ain't worth the trouble. Save your time and money and buy something else.
Mine works great. followed the instructions exactly. Ill blame it on operator error.
yup my zagg fits and looks and feels flawless. its an essential piece to any high end device. best buy owned me for 22$ though

Best Skins Ever
I have tried BodyGuardz and Best Skins Ever. Haven't stopped using BSE since. They have a full body armor for the D4.
http://www.bestskinsever.com/motorola-droid-4-skin
Also they sell DIY sheets.
The good thing about bodyguardz is that once you order for them, and create an account, all future orders are 20% off. The only gotcha i have with them is their shipping. They "force" you to spend $25 worth of stuff so you can get free shipping, and its sloooow shipping.
Thinking about skipping them this time around and just hitting my local vzw store since i get 25% off.
The last screen protectors i bought from vzw were for my D1 and they were absolutely terrible. Can anyone speak to if theyve improved since?
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield...es-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
Used invisible shields for many many years.
After about 3 or 4 years they can start to yellow a little but they will replace them under the lifetime guarantee.
About a 6 or 7 on the installation difficulty scale though (to get a perfect dust free application). Trick is to get the bathroom really steamy with the shower. Takes all the dust out of the air while it's still humid.
Lifetime guarantee on the product. 45 day satisfaction guarantee if you just don't like it.
I would use amazon I like the mirror screen thats just me. Kind of annoying when it is bright outside and you have the brightness down low tho
I've always been one to use screen protectors on my displays, even on gorilla glass. With the nexus 7 using an unconfirmed type of corning glass (ie it might not be gorilla glass and instead just have a scratch resistant coating), i figured to go shopping.
XO skins is the company I've been buying from recently. It is very easy to find coupons that will work online. They work really well, although they can feel a bit rubbery. They do NOT have the orange peel texture companies like zagg are known for. Since it is a wet installation, it is sometimes possible to see "rainbow streaks" under the screen over a white background. If you run into this problem, shoot them an email and they'll send you a replacement. Customer service is excellent.
http://xoskins.com/laptops-tablet-r...in-protectors/google-nexus-7-screen-protector
This next one i haven't tried, but it differs from the above protector in that it is a static cling installation. This would probably be good for those who are against wet installations, or fans screen protectors from companies such as steinheil. This one is anti-glare though, so it is likely that it has a matte-textured or cloudy display.

We should be seeing more in the next few weeks. If you find one, post it
until then, cheers
I'll definitely be going with the Skinomi: I've done both Skinomi and ZAGG, and ZAGG is just too sticky for my taste. IMO, my fingers just glide over the screen much easier with a Skinomi protector.
I've always gone with xoskins and their customer service is AMAZING. No joke, if you feel unsatisfied with your screen protector, just email them and they'll most likely send you a new one. I got one for my Galaxy Nexus though one thing about these types of screen protectors is that dents and marks got onto them pretty easily. Even so, I'll still be getting an xoskin for my Nexus 7 (assuming I get one soon).

+1 SGP for screen protectors & skinomi for silver carbon fiber kit
SGPs are great but expensive. I've bought 5$ screen protectors from Frys that have the same quality as my SGPs. Skinomi intends to scratch very easily and it doesn't self heal. Never had experience with XO skins though and I'm not a big fan of water based once anymore since they seem to dent and scratch easily X_x..
I am not a fan of protectors. I don't use one on my Sony EReader (soft screen) or my Motorola phone (Gorilla).
Both have cases, and are scratch-free after a couple of years use.
That works better for me.
Here's what SGP CS wrote back to me when I asked if they plan to make a SP for the Nexus 7
Thank you for contacting Spigen.com Customer Service Department.
Hi, my name is Diana from Spigen.com.
Thank you for your interest in our products! As of now, we don’t have any definite plans to make screen protectors for the Asus Nexus 7 Tablet. However, if there is increased interest from our customers, we may change our production plans in the future. Please check our website for any updates time to time.
If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Thank you.

Funny thing is that they usually reply with that for most new products if I'm not mistaken.
I'm hoping Clarivue will make a Nexus 7 protector soon. I've always like them, but I'm an acrylic protector kind of person. Just never cared for the "rubbery" feel. I'll put up with the very occasional minor scratch that you can't even see when the screen's on in exchange for a feel that's identical to the screen itself.

I normally just use cheap ones of ebay on my phones which work well enough however my father got a samusung 10.1 and I think because of the size the static as you pull off the second layer just sucked any surrounding particles to the skin.
I bought one from bestskinsever which is a wet application one and it worked very well and was decently priced so I'm planning to get one from them for the Nexus and my new HTC One XL.
I sent a query on their site and got an initial automated reply, the more queries they got for the Nexus the quicker they will start making them.
I used to use typical screen protectors, but I feel they are easier to get bubbles and dust stuck under them and are much less forgiving for mistakes. This is an even bigger problem with larger screens.
I now only use wet application screen protectors, such as InvisibleShield (too expensive), BestSkinsEver, and Prestige / XtremeGuard. There are much easier to apply after practicing on other devices, much more forgiving as if you don't align right, you can easily remove as it's still wet and just spray more of the solution on (water + drop of dish detergent). The secret is to make sure it's always wet when applying and then once it's on, squeegee..if it's not on yet, keep it wet. They do have a bit of texture, but I don't mind it.
I ordered XtremeGuard from ebay for $9 shipped.. much cheaper than the alternatives right now and it ships quick from Utah. I also ordered a folio style case specifically for the Nexus 7 from ebay (shipped from Hong Kong) .. i made sure it was specific because others are selling Kindle Fire cases, but this one has specific slots for speaker and other inputs and is under $10.
Also to the person wanting full body skin...it doesn't make sense to cover the soft back of the Nexus 7 with something like InvisibleShield.
Edit: Links if it's alright:

Yeah, I wouldn't go with anything other than XOSkins.
I'm absolutely 100% satisfied with the way they've worked on my Nexus.
I "pre-ordered" my Skinomi case from Amazon last week. They estimate 8/1 as the shipping date. That could mean two weeks without a screen protector. My OCD-ness won't like that.

Yep, I heard these are junk. Boxwave posted their entire stock of accessories discounted on Slickdeals website. There are hardly any reviews about these screen protectors, and whatever they have on Amazon is rated low.
I will like to have my own opinion on their quality. I will gladly pay 3 dollars for that

Oh, without a doubt, I would like you to have your own opinion and once you receive these - please share it on this forum!
I went through half a dozen of cheap ebay screen protectors from different sellers hoping I will find that diamond in the rough Didn't happen. I even tried premium ones, like Spigen. Now, I'm on iSmooth and appreciate it more No matter how many reviews you read/watch, you make the final call on what you like!
I think a diamond in the rough is tech armor. I really like it and Recco it. I an a sucker for good deals on screen protectors though.

So, if you found tech armor to be the best, why do you continue searching for other ones, and I assume testing them out? I'm in kind of in a same boat, went through a bunch where some were too thin, others too thick, some left s-pen marks, others had annoying rainbow effect, and some didn't stick as well. Now, I settled on iSmooth and don't want to remove and reapply anything else. Even with my last "final" install I didn't clean up phone screen 100% and probably left a tiny area around home button oily where I see sp didn't make a good contact (my fault). But I just don't want to rip it off, clean the phone and re-apply it again. I too love good deals, but don't want to keep reapplying new sp. Now, got UAG case on order and that one comes with its own screen protector which some say is a good quality. Plus, Scott/JLG mentioned in another thread he will be coming up with dry install sp... It never stops lol!!!
I like screen protectors. Cell phones and screen protectors are my hobbies.My favorite one that requires soap water is phantomskinz and I have tried them all. I just got into these dry installs a I am very impressed. I like to test them out and I keep going back to tech armor
one quick question, does this sp cover the whole phone, or leave a few sections such as top or bottom.
alas...the code is no more..
There was a problem
The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.
if anyone gets it to work or finds another, post up !
Hat Tip to the OP though! Thanks, was worth a shot =]
Called Zagg yesterday to ask about the curved tempered glass and the girl said it's been shipping for the past week. You have to call and order as it's still not available on their website. Now here's the kicker, It has a black painted border around the edges. :silly:
I asked if it sticks to the actual display area and she said yes, but did not sound too sure. It was $44.99 but she said she would give me 10% off and another $10.00 off discount. After hearing about the black "Painted Border" I did not order and will wait to see what others find out.
If anyone has ordered and received one please post some pictures and a review. Thank You.
Some have already had it and sent it back. See the TGSP thread. It's the same Chinese crap.
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yea, just saw that. Glad I did not order one.
Honestly I've given up hope of ever finding a decent TGSP for this phone. You need 100% adhesion to the screen for it to not look and feel like absolute balls every time, and so far all the TGSP are exactly the same garbage you can get for 20$ on eBay.
I tried a protection but it did not work
Anyone else tried the Zagg curved yet?
Must have lost my mind..........................Just picked one up at Best Buy for the Regular Edge at the everyday low price of $44.99 plus tax.
I'll see how it works out tomorrow. One thing that worries me is all the cutouts on the back are real sharp feeling. Hope they won't scratch the face of the phone.
So the Zagg glass for the edge isn't any good?
I saw these in the local EE shop on Saturday, and whilst I was there someone bought one and attempted to install it. Looked no different than all the others you get online to me (other than being more expensive), and it still didn't appear to sit on the screen properly. I'll stick with the HD Dry myself. If a premium company like Zagg can't get these things working properly, then tempered glass protectors on curved screens are a write off for me. The manufacturers just don't seem capable of getting them right but as long as people buy them they'll continue making them.
